From the manager

Grace Cottage in Porlock is a charming nineteenth-century property situated in the heart of the village, yet set back from the main road for peace and quiet. The cottage is very comfortable and well equipped, ideal for couples or families wanting to explore this lovely working village and Exmoor.

Grace Cottage in Porlock was remodelled about a decade ago to open up the downstairs living area into a more spacious and light-filled room in which to cook, eat and relax. In 2018 the property was sold to new owners who have dedicated a lot of time and attention to updating this lovely holiday cottage, including a new kitchen fitted with modern facilities; a new log burner in the sitting room for cosy evenings in, plus new beds and linen too. There is one double bed and one twin bedroom. The bathroom has also been updated and includes a powerful shower over the bath and modern large towel rail.

The cottage is accessed via an enclosed courtyard with outside seating and a bed of mature shrubs. Two allocated parking spaces are situated a short walk from the cottage behind the garage on the High Street. You can pull in on the double yellow lines by the church to drop people and luggage off as the route to the cottage (The Drang is for pedestrians only).

Grace Cottage kitchen is fitted with electric hob, oven, microwave, fridge, freezer and dishwasher. Other equipment includes toaster, kettle, a variety of kitchen utensils, cutlery, crockery and glasses.

A modern HD TV with sound bar and a DVD player is provided in the living room. Wifi is available in Grace Cottage free of charge and is normally around 70Mbps. The TV is connected to the WiFi and has Chromecast so you can connect your smartphone, tablet or laptop to play your own content. You will need your own subscriptions for streaming services. The sound bar is also Bluetooth-enabled so you connect compatible devices and play your own music, etc. 4G is available on Vodafone in the house. Around 70 TV/Radio channels are available should you not want or wish to get connected!

Electricity and heating costs are included in the price of your accommodation. The electric storage heaters are very effective. The electricity at Grace Cottage is 100% from renewable sources.

Wood and kindling (enough for two fires) is provided for the log burner, additional logs can be purchased from the shop or hardware store in the village (within easy walking distance).

Bed linen, duvets, blankets and towels are provided for your convenience, but please bring your own beach towels if you wish to take towels with you on day trips.

Two allocated off-road parking spaces are available at Central Garage, for the residents of Grace Cottage. This is a short walk from the property along the High Street.

You are welcome to bring two dogs (strictly maximum of two) with you to Grace Cottage, on the condition that they are well behaved, stay downstairs (there is a door at the bottom of the stairs to facilitate this) and are not left alone in the property at any time. A supplementary fee of £15 will be added to your invoice per dog.

Grace Cottage is strictly non-smoking.

The property will be ready from 2 pm on the day of your arrival. Please depart by 10 am on the last day of your stay. Please leave the property clean and tidy so that we can guarantee it will be ready on time for our next guests.
